News Update:

If Congress passes a bill, should they be exempt from following it? Hopefully you answered "No" to that question, and while I hope it gets repealed (and there is legislation that aims to do just that), here is legislation making sure that our politicians have to be accountable to the laws/regulations of Obamacare like the rest of us...as it should be

Tried to consistently flex the working muscles hard between sets and hold peak contraction on back exercises. Pump was absolutely ridiculous.

It was hard, but not hard enough, I didn't have that unbearable sensation to take the wraps off, I need to get wrap a little tighter.

Occluded Suspended Bridge Leg Curl
BWx25, 10, 10

Wow, got the wraps right for this, it was brutal!

Tried occluded arms for the first time, wrapped too tight and could only do 1 set, my arms were very tingly before I even started. I will be trying this again in the future. I think it could be promising.

My wife and I got Valentine's day gifts for each other....

It's my first tatoo, it is a Celtic Trinity Knot and the band is a Cetic braided design.....I lost my wedding band 10 months into our marriage and have been without one for about 8 years....I can't lose this one!

I will defer to Andro on this, but maybe you don't need to wrap them tighter. As we've discussed extensively here getting the wraps tight is not of extreme importance as a moderate restriction is more than enough, maybe just increase the reps. However, maybe the wraps were just way to loose.

Ha, ha, thanks for the kind words!

I'm pretty sure I needed to wrap tighter. Just comparing to my previous occluded sessions, no unbearable sensation to take them off, No DOMS the next day.
